Grab these freebies before they are gone

In any moment of decision the best thing you can do is the
right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you
can do is nothing.
- Theodore Roosevelt

Grab these freebies while you still can!

For many
people, being prepared means having enough beer stockpiled to last long enough
to cover Thursday night football through Monday night football.

Being a Boy Scout is not in the nature for most
folks. Every time winter storms or hurricanes approach, the nightly news airs
spots showing the unprepared hoards hitting the grocery store because “Gee, I
never thought a natural disaster would hit my neighborhood.’

I’ve been writing about and practicing the art of
preparedness since 1999.Sadly, what I
see is that fewer people seem to have a clue about preparedness, what is
happening to our world or even what steps they need to become more self
reliant.

It is ironic however, there were perhaps 50 groups
preaching the benefits of being self reliant when I started, now there are
thousands of such groups.Despite that,
more people today seem to have their head buried in the sand.

I was taught from an early age to help others by
sharing knowledge but I see fewer people who take advantage or who share such
resources.There are always those few,
roughly five percent, who actively support and/or practice such endeavors.

At one point we had about 2,000 direct subscribers
and supporters and another 8,000 Twitter followers and a few thousand facebook
fans [the weakest link in our chain].Even fewer have ever given their financial support through purchases
from our site or storefront.

Rather than beating a dead horse any further, I am
suspending this blog by Thanksgiving.The site, unless adopted by another like-minded group, will end in
January 2015.

My health issues have put a damper on my energy
level and the dismal support for our efforts here has dampened my enthusiasm…and
because so few seem to care, no longer will I ponder the challenges of trying
to save our nation.

If by chance you would like to take over all of the
Poor Man Survival web properties, drop me a line. Several of my informational
CD ROM collections, such as our best selling Protect Your Homestead are
for sale too. [Note: our No BS Guide to Starting an Online Business
collection has been donated to a college which supports the retraining of
returning veterans].

P.S.I am
working on another project which involves a long time passion – pinups and
Hollywood starlets.I’ll let you in our
retro guy efforts in a future issue.

Feel free to share the ideas &
resources you enjoy with your friends on Facebook, Pinterest and Twitter. Plus
share this with any friends or family you think would find it interesting.
